ABSTRACT:
A track structure for a tracked vehicle especially a tank, comprises a track whose tread links are joined in the continuous chain by intermediate links such that the tread links have a spacing x from one another. The tread chain passes around running-wheel assemblies supporting the chassis of the vehicle, each assembly having a pair of rollers journaled adjacent one another at horizontally spaced axes such that the spacing X of the two rollers of each assembly from one another is equal to 1x to 1.5x, inclusive. This reduces shock transmission to the vehicle as the flat links pass around the roller assemblies.
